⚫ How to use self-test routine ⚫ How to recall factory Default settings For more detailed information about multimeter operation, please refer to the User Guide for the SDM3045X. Functional check This functional check covers three areas by which you can verify if the multimeter is working correctly.
Display Number Hold Probe Hold Self Test The SDM3045X provides self-test functions, including Key Test, LCD Test, Beeper Test and Chip Test. Operating Steps: 1. Press [Shift] > [Utility] > Test /Admin > Board Test 2. To test the keys: Select Key to enter the key test interface.
Performance Verification Use the performance verification tests in this section to verify the measurement performance of the instrument using the instrument’s specifications listed in the product data sheet. Performance verification tests are recommended as an acceptance test when you first receive the instrument or after performing calibration. If the instrument fails performance verification, calibration adjustment or repair is required.

Assembly Procedures This chapter describes how to remove the major modules from the SDM3045X. To install the removed modules or replace new modules, please follow corresponding operating steps in reverse order. Security Consideration Only qualified personnel should perform the disassembly procedures.
Disassembly Procedures 1. Turn off the power and remove all measurement leads and other cables, including the power cord, from the instrument before continuing. 2. Rotate the handle to the upright position and remove it by pulling outward where it attaches to the case. 3.

It mainly works on signal processing such as AC is converted to DC in order to measure AC magnitude. Please refer to the following drawing to quickly locate the test points on the analog board for easy resolution of the failures you encounter. SDM3045X Service Manual 19...
Main Board Drawing The main board is used to control and manage the whole internal system of the multimeter. It completes the GUI function, controlling and configuration function for analog board as well as man-machine interactions. Please refer to the following drawing to quickly locate the test points on the main board for easy resolution of the failures you encounter.
SIGLENT. Note: The main power supply provides an input fuse to protect against the danger of fire in the event of a failure of the power supply circuitry. However, SDM3045X Service Manual 21...
this fuse will not fail ("open" or "blow") in normal power supply operation except after a significant overload occurs. Replace the entire main power supply assembly if the input fuse fails. Check the Analog Board If it is desired to remove the analog board from the metal shelf inside the multimeter, you’d better place it on a clean, insulated mat.

Microprocessor Check Observe the LED light on the main board, which indicates the working state of microprocessor chip. If the light turns on, then the corresponding codes have been loaded successfully and the chip is in an operating state. Otherwise, there may be a problem with it.
If the original shipping container is not available, place your unit in a container which will ensure at least 4 inches of compressible packaging material around all sides for the instrument. Use static-free packaging materials to avoid additional damage to your unit. SDM3045X Service Manual 25...
